201157 - 3650W DUAL FUEL ELECTRIC START GENERATOR
ASSEMBLY
17
Connect the Battery
1. Cut cable tie on each side of battery connector.
2. Push two halves of battery connector together tightly.
Add Engine Oil
WARNING
DO NOT attempt to crank or start the engine before it has been
properly filled with the recommended type and amount of oil.
Damage to the generator as a result of failing to follow these
instructions will void your warranty.
NOTICE
The generator rotor has a sealed, pre-lubricated ball bearing
that requires no additional lubrication for the life of the bearing.
NOTICE
The recommended oil type for typical use is 10W-30
automotive oil. However, using the listed conventional oils
shown in the “Recommended Engine Oil Type” chart may be
used for typical use including the first 5 hours of the break-in
run time period of the engine.
If running generator in extreme temperatures, refer to the
“Recommended Engine Oil Type” chart.

1. Place the generator on a flat, level surface.
2. Remove oil fill cap/dipstick to add oil.
3. Using a funnel, add up to 20.3 fl. oz. (600 ml) of oil (included)
and replace oil fill cap/dipstick. DO NOT OVERFILL.
4. Check engine oil level at every use and add as needed.
MAX
OIL DIP STICK
NOTICE
Once oil has been added, a visual check should show oil about
1-2 threads from running out of the fill hole.
When using the dipstick to check oil level, DO NOT screw in
the dipstick while checking.
NOTICE
Check oil level often during the break-in period. Refer to the
Maintenance section for recommended service intervals.
CAUTION
This engine is equipped with a low oil shut-off and will stop
when the oil level in the crankcase falls below the threshold
level.
NOTICE
The first 5 hours of run time are the break-in period for the
unit. During the break in period stay at or below 50% of the
running watt rating and vary the load occasionally to allow
stator windings to heat and cool. Adjusting the load will also
cause engine speed to vary slightly and help seat piston rings.
After the 5 hour break-in period, change the oil.
